You know you've hit the big-time when you've got your own doppelganger and Mo Salah now has his own back home in Egypt.
The Egyptian King has become a hero in his homeland after his stunning 43-goal campaign for Liverpool - with the streets of Cairo basically turned into a big tribute to the 25-year old.
His heroics have led to him winning the PFA Player of the Year, as well as becoming the first African player to win the Football Writers' Player of the Year.

One man making the most of Salah's success is Ahmed Bahaa, who has an uncanny resemblance to the Liverpool No.11. The beard and hair combo is on point.
30-year old Bahaa has become a huge hit, with his social media following seriously growing. The former Cairo University student actually met Salah back in 2016 when he was at Roma - and with the two wearing the same coloured t-shirt, it will take you a fair bit of time to figure out which one is the real Mo Salah.

In fact, Salah was a bit spooked about by it when he bumped into him
"[Mohamed Salah] was taken aback [when he saw me], he said to me he feels like he's standing in front of a mirror, but that it is he who looks like me, because I am older," Bahaa said, as per Sky Sports.
High-profile players to have had lookalikes in recent times include Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Lionel Messi and Jamie Vardy so Salah is in good company!
